Lassiter's Hotel - Guest Room: Rhiannon is working at her own pace cleaning one of the bedrooms, Susan turns up asking if Jackson has been to see her as she has been calling Rhiannon, but her phone is off. Susan tells Rhiannon that Jackson is missing and that she thinks it is because he heard Karl and Susan arguing about him. Susan says that some of the neighbours are out looking, but she thinks it is time to call the police; Susan tries to apologise and explain but Rhiannon gets upset and says that Susan can explain later.

No 30: Callum can’t find his phone and Georgia is complaining that Gem has been in the shower for 20 minutes. Bailey arrives and tells Toadie, Sonya, Georgia and Callum that Jackson has run away. Bailey tells them that Matt has got the police looking but he needs them to help with a neighbourhood search.

Lassiter's Complex: Mason is parking a car and Paul asks if he has seen Rhiannon anywhere. Paul gets angry at Mason about Rhiannon's slackness asking, if this is how they do things in Mount Isa. Sheila then dashes over to Mason and tells him about Jackson going missing - Mason runs off to help. Sheila says Paul should come and help too, but he says he might just go and have a cup of coffee much to Sheila's annoyance.

Harold's Store: Paul is looking online at the article about Josh. Josh then comes in and Paul asks him if he has seen the article. As he reads it, Josh is shocked by that the article focuses on Hudson and Chris, who is described by the paper as 'hunky mechanic Chris Pappas'. Paul tries to make a joke, but Josh says it is a disaster, Paul tells him that he was dumb to trust a journalist. Josh tells Paul that the stuff about Chris and Hudson was off the record and Paul says that he doesn’t think Chris will appreciate that. Callum then rushes in and tells Josh and Paul about Jackson. Paul suggests that if he is anything like his mum he is probably trying to get into a nightclub somewhere. Josh offers to help in the search, Bailey asks him to go to the primary school to search, Paul suggests that he give the garage a wide berth.

Charlie's: Susan is on the phone, talking to someone about Jackson, and Karl is talking to some of the customers and showing Jackson's picture. Karl suggests that he is at the men’s shed and Susan accuses him of snapping at her - Karl says he did run away because of what Susan said about Jackson becoming a burden. Karl and Susan both agree that they were beginning to like having him around and that is what they will tell him when they find him.

Power Road: The police are out looking for Jackson; Sheila tells Georgia that the manager of Grease Monkeys says a boy who looked like Jackson was hanging around by the bus stop earlier. Chris is outside the garage working on a car - Georgia asks him if he has seen Jackson, but he says he hasn’t and tries to get back to work. Georgia says they could do with a hand searching and Sheila suggests he could look around Anson’s Corner, but Chris says he can’t as he’s in enough trouble with Danni already, and it would give her just the excuse to fire him. Georgia tries again, but Sheila whisks her away saying they don’t need his help. Chris hears some banging in Kyle’s yard but he ignores it.

No 28: Rhiannon explains to Mason that she doesn’t understand why Jackson has run away. Mason tries to reassure her that he will turn up - he tells her that the Kennedys are good people, but she says if they are that good why did they drive Jackson away. Mason suggests it might be that they have been spending too much time together. Karl and Susan come back to see if they have heard anything and to get the car so they can cover more ground in the search. Rhiannon gets upset and says she blames Karl and Susan, and that as soon as Jackson is found they are moving out.

Fitzgerald Motors/Dial-a-Kyle Yard: Chris is looking at the letter from Hudson, but doesn’t open it. He then hears the banging from Kyle’s yard again and goes to investigate. He finds Jackson hiding in a trailer, and Jackson tries to run away but Chris explains that he knows his mum and talks to him about when Rhiannon bought him the Xbox and Chris spoke to him on the phone. Chris tells Jackson that everyone is worried about him and looking for him - Jackson explains that he was waiting for a bus to go back to Mount Isa, but when he saw the cops he jumped the fence and hid in Kyle’s yard.

No 28: Chris brings Jackson back and Rhiannon is ecstatic. Jackson says he didn’t mean to worry his mum, but he ran away because he thought she was going to send him away so she could spend more time with Mason. Rhiannon tells him that he is wrong and that she would never get rid of him - she says that things are different now and that it is him and her together, and her and Mason are just friends. She insists that Jackson is everything to her.

Harold's Store: Sonya arrives with Nell, late for the mother and baby group. Everyone has gone, but another mother turns up saying she was late because she was out looking for Jackson, having been persuaded to help by Sheila. She introduces herself as Mandy Edwards and her daughter as Mia, Sonya then introduces herself too, and Mandy asks if she is any relation to Jarrod Rebecchi. Mandy says her husband Eric knows Jarrod and Sonya realises it it's Eric, who was trying to sue the gym. Mandy calls her husband an idiot, and she tries to leave but Sonya tells her to stay and have a piece of cake.

No 28: Karl and Susan apologise to Jackson, saying they didn’t mean to upset him - he says that they didn’t. Rhiannon admits it was her fault and she apologises to the Kennedys - Mason says they should get back to work. Karl asks Rhiannon if she is still moving out and she says not to worry about it and that they are staying.

Harold's Store: Mandy and Sonya are talking babies. Mandy asks about daycare centres and Sonya asks why Eric can’t look after Mia - Mandy tells her that because of his back, most days he can’t even pick her up. Mandy tells Sonya about the skiing accident, and that Eric can’t work and they lost their house and had to move into a small flat - and then Eric made things worse by trying to sue the gym.

Rebecchi Law - Reception: Toadie is shocked that Sonya wants him to help Eric and his wife. Sonya tries to convince Toadie to meet with Eric and have a look at his insurance claim. Toadie is reluctant, but Sonya begs him to help Eric, Mandy and Mia.

Fitgerald Motors: Sheila brings Chris some moussaka for afternoon tea, to thank him for finding Jackson. Sheila makes Chris laugh and she says it is nice to see, telling him that he's been a pain in the butt recently. The garage phone rings, it's Danni and she has noticed via the security camera that Chris wasn’t at the garage again. He tries to explain about finding Jackson but she doesn’t listen and Chris gets angry and slams the phone down.

Charlie's: Georgia is looking at the article about Josh on her iPad, as Chris comes in saying he has had the day from hell. She tries to hide her iPad from him, but he wonders what she's up to, and she reluctantly shows him the article; Chris tells her angrily that Josh had no right to tell the paper personal stuff about him. Georgia tries to empathise with Chris but he isn’t interested and he storms out.

Ramsay Street: Josh is on the phone to Terese, asking if there is something they can do about the article. Chris then appears and confronts him, as Josh tries to explain. Josh says that he said a few things about Chris and Hudson, but they weren’t bad. Chris tells him he shouldn’t have said anything at all.
